I'm sorry for an extremely long absence...but think of it as my vacation but now i'm back full force and i'll be posting some of my favorite looks from my favorite fall runway shows. First of I'll start with the always adorable alber elbaz at lanvin and his predominantly dark colored yet fashion forward collection.

A very swingy gorgeous dress...and note the one shoulder is still going strong for fall not to mention his statement necklaces
A very bold feminine look....very executive power woman but with a touch of femininity, the color also makes it a very basic classic wraparound dress
A very simple black long sleeved sheath with detailed cuffs that give it that extra touch to the classic LBD
The shoes were just as yummy as the clothes, these patent navy ankle bootie are definitely on my fall wishlist
As well as these...as Christian from Project Runway would say very tranny fierce..t strap heels also in navy maybe navy is the new black?
This gorgeous detailed black dress with long black gloves great attention details and workmanship on the dress
One of my favorite dresses i just love everything about it...if Alber Elbaz has an extra in a size 2 he can send it this way...not only does it have one shoulder but gorgeous draping and a sheer top and sleeve its just perfection from the master
I also loved this simple textured black dress with the statement necklace..simple yet chic
This once again black dress is also very much my style (all Lanvin is my style) with the beaded detail on the dress and the very intricate and very cool sleeves
This last dress also has the sheer top that i loved so much a simple textured sweetheart neckline deep red color with one long black sleeve

i'm deeply sorry about my astonishing lack of posts but it was unfortunately there was a death in the family(please keep us in your prayers)...but happy valentines day everbody! i never really got to finish my post on haute couture week so i've just put pictures of all my favorites of the week...and i should be back posting somethings about fashion week....sorry if its very image filled but i'm a bit behind on the fashion schedule so i have to squeeze it all in

My condolences to the Ledger family and I will keep Heath and his loved one in my prayers and also hope that he won't become just another string of headlines for the media but that his death be treated respectfully....his short 10 years of work has been an inspiration to all and proved that he was a great actor and loving father

Hello bloggers i'm back due to a sprained ankle...i've gotten some free time to post about haute couture week thanks to a tennis warmup gone bad...anyways i'm also wathching the australian open...sharapova v. henin was amazing women's tennis and federer v. blake was also very impressive...anyways this is only the first part of my coverage of my favorite week of all of the fashion year

This is a new designer i heard of called Franck Sorbier...this dress is very reminiscent of Chanel's last season Haute Couture gowns only in a more playful matter with colored graphics against a sheer black dress
This is another Franck Sorbier dress that is also gorgeous...a black turtleneck empire top with a multicolored skirt....it's very different and very childlike yet sophisticated
Secondly comes Christophe Kosse...this ethereal white dress would be perfect for a wedding if it had a longer front skirt part...the detailed top is perfect for a classic yet edgy dress
I would love to see this dress from Christophe Kosse on Helena Bonham Carter for the Oscars...it would go perfectly with her style and its still a lighter style for her
Finally this sheer black and nude detailed dress which is also a bit reminiscent of Balenciaga's detailed dresses from about four/five seasons ago...anyways its a beautiful dress but hard to wear because of the sheernes
Now to the more renowned designers....Karl Lagerfeld hit a perfect chord for the new couture collection its a mix of ice princess and ballerina..loved the maryjanes with all the outfits but anyways..this black and white dress with the feather trim detail and wide black belt it is right on key with the new trends and still very edgy
This pink confection from Chanel is absolutely adorable and it would look delightful on Ellen Page..if she would be daring enough to wear it Another Chanel dress that has a 20's sort of feel to it the flower and sleeve detail add that unexpected touch
This jacket and skirt combo is a new refreshing younger way to take the traditional Chanel suit into a different light...the jacket would look gorgeous paired with a minidress, longdress, skirts or jeans.
This pink dress is i think exactly what the collection was trying to show...it's a pink ballerina like dress with a one shoulder flower detail that just screams chic....this would be perfect on Emma Watson or Clemence Posey

And the final designer for my first part coverage of couture week is Armani Prive. This white dress also has a ballerina feel to it...it's not very couture because i think it looks like something Valentino would show in a ready to wear but the detailed skirt is gorgeous
This pink dress with a red hem is gorgeous and i think it would look perfect on Marion Cotillard because it would look gorgeous on her hair color and skin color...funny that i'm itching for the oscar's to come around
Finally this ethereal dress from Armani Prive that would also look gorgeous on Cate Blanchett since she's pregnant and the dress would make her have a more softer look and bring out that radiant pregnant glow

Well that was my first wrap up for Haute Couture Week keep looking for a new header...and also my absolute favorite couturier Christian Lacroix

happy new year to everyone! i'm just back from vacation in my father's hometown...were there is no internet...i was quite disconnected from the world but now i'm back...with a new year come resolutions and so now i present you my new years resolutions

1 Learn to Sew(not with a machine)
I know that with a machine its so much easier but garments sewn by hand feel so much more luxurious and anyways if the the world runs out of electricity i'll still be able to make clothes...if i really practice maybe i'll get really good here i come paris!
2. Be Healthier
Practically everyone makes the resolution to lose a few pounds..well i've changed it this year i don't care if i don't lose wait this year i just want to have a healthier lifestyle....walk/run daily and stop eating all the junk food that does a body bad..oranges, peaches and mangoes are just as a good as a hamburger...though i can't give up my sweet tooth because i love sweets but sweets aren't as bad as junk food...now if this makes me shed a few pounds and make me look like one of these girls i won't mind
3. Improve my Tennis Game
I should practice more so i can improve my game...maybe you'll see me at the US Open, eat your heart out Maria Sharapova...if i do make it to the open maybe i can get myself roger federer

4. Be the Best Blogger Ever!!
Okay that's not possible since there are so many good bloggers that i think i can't beat but at least I can try. When i get inspired i can write really well.

5. Get into Colombia
It's my dream college and i would give my left pinky to get into it...hopefully God willing i can get in.

This was a pretty lousy post...but i'll get back to all the good stuff in a few days

Now if it were up to me all the blogger girls would be getting a piece of the fabulous Missoni Pre Fall collection...it was definitely my favorite(Zac Posen came in at 2nd)....but unfortunately that's not so but i'll leave you with the pictures of a scrumptious collection...Merry Christmas! and Happy New Year until January 2008!(Couture collection is up in January as a late Christmas gift from the fashion world)
